Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before opening any covers. Mains voltage is dangerous.
- Verify outlet and cord: Test the outlet with another appliance and inspect the AEG power cord for damage.
- Check main switch: Access the main power switch and test it with a multimeter for continuity when switched on. Replace if it does not close.
- Inspect internal fuse: Locate the internal fuse on the PCB or near the cord entry. Replace only with the same rating if blown. If it blows again, there is a deeper fault.
- Check wiring continuity: Trace the live and neutral from the cord to the PCB, ensuring no breaks or loose connections.
If all upstream components are good, the main PCB may have failed and require replacement.
